yes ..... you speak the truth man , I'll be the first to admit it ..... i remember when i was 16 ..... i had clear lenses and a silver Grillecraft sports grille on my car ,hell I thought that stuff was cool .... i had a subwoofer in my car , I liked ground effects and hell i even wanted a ulta z hood for my car , now I am 18 and i have to say ..... I jerked all that crap off/out of my car and I would never ever think of putting that stuff back on my camaro or anyone elses f-body I like the clean look nowadays , nothing over the top and i wouldn't pile stuff all over the front of my car ..... looks like total @ss IMO

Sunoco w/ body FTW!!!! I absolutely hate the Ultra Z and regular cowl hoods dont flow with the body lines nicely.

I still need paint but here's my Z w/ LT1 SS spoiler.





PS- That was a 20min hood fitment in the rain, pics taken next day.

I like the VFN. Gonna put one on my car. However, the Sunoco and Ultra Z would both look great on your car. These guys are right. Either hood on a silver Z looks killer.

Hey does anyone know how that VFN 3" SS Hood holds up to rain. It looks like a lot of stuff would get wet and dirty really fast

Good choice! You can NEVER go wrong with the SS hood. Just don't rebadge your car, LOL. Make sure to post up some pics when installed.
